Starring…me

We spend all our life waiting in line for our turn, to be picked, to make the team, to be the star of the show.

We’re permanently at rehearsal…hoping one day to be ready for the real thing.

What if we stopped rehearsing? Stopped waiting in line to be picked?

What if we choose ourselves and starred in our own film…not just once, but always?

Floating by

Today I just got up and decided to go and sit by the sea, to be in the cold wind, to sit in the winter sun and to just watch the world go by…to be in the moment and at peace.

My soul and body were telling me for a while to take a break, to step away from the ‘package’ aka the mind and all its rambling repetitive daily thought patterns. But like most, I ignored it.

I feel completely re-energised from just being in nature and for feeling the cold elements. From just sitting and observing the moment, it reminded me that passing clouds and passing people are like thoughts they float by and that’s it. Everything passes unless we choose to cling on and attach things to it. Then through choice, we continue to suffer through our attachments.

Let life be, let it float by and go with it.
